So my FTR runs right at 173 degrees in all riding conditions as long as it is moving. But the temp climbs quickly when I sit at a light or let it idle to hop off and get the mail. The fan will often kick on after I drive up my mile long gravel drive. I find it strange that the fan does not continue to run when the bike is off. I have checked and the temp can continue to rise after the key is off. So if the fan is running when I park I usually let it run a bit to cool before I shut it off.
My questions... Is this normal? How hot is too hot? Anyone ever consider modifying so fan will run even with the key off until engine cools? And since now is cool weather and TN will be 95+ all summer, should I worry that the situation will only get worse?
Thanks
